Three scheduling notes as everyone emerges from a turkey coma or a shopping hangover:
The Longmont Rec Center has reduced hours on the 24th and 31st, and is closed on the 25th and Jan 1st. See “Modified Hours and Closure Dates” here.
What are you doing the morning of Black Friday? Shopping? Sleeping in? Maybe going for a swim?
There will be a time for masters swimming Friday morning at 6:00 am. There will not be a coach on deck. I’ve posted a workout for Friday here. Use that one or one of your favorites from the Workouts page.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
This rolled by in one of the Facebook groups I’m in.
I recall that someone at a city council meeting mentioned this as a resource, but I haven’t heard anything since. (I’m out of the loop.) Does anyone know anyone powerful that might be able to get one or more people to one of these conferences? 
There’s a conference scheduled in the Denver area November 2019, but that isn’t soon enough!
Full house this morning! Seventeen masters in 3 lanes. The three remaining lanes had as many as many as 9 lap swimmers during the hour, so there was no room to spare. And Pete/Santa was on deck to greet us!
Friday morning’s workout started with swims where the slower pace group in the lane took a short break to let the faster pace group go by. Then we had 25s so we could stop worrying about counting laps.
Did this set work for you? I got a couple of positive comments. Don’t be afraid to let me know if you had a bad experience with the way I set up a set; I really want to know. I can’t catch everything that happens from up on the deck.
It’s taking more brain power to write these types of workouts, but I hope it helps people feel like there’s a place for them. Together we can make this work!
In case you didn’t know, the Mega Millions lottery jackpot is up to $1.2 billion. The jackpot is projected to be up to $1.6 billion by next Tuesday night’s drawing. If you buy a ticket and win, promise to set aside a few million for a new Longmont pool. I’m sure Brian will let you name the facility anything you want.
